Windows 10: LucidSound LS50X gaming headset not recognized as an audio playback device.

Got the headset a few days ago which was a direct upgrade from my LS35X. the 35x needed a wireless Bluetooth adapter to connect to my pc which does not come stock with built in Bluetooth whereas the 50x comes with its own dongle. the headset and dongle connect fine, problem is that when I look in my device manager it's listed as "unspecified" and not as "Device" so I can't select it for audio playback. I've tried the fix that they LucidSound list on their website and a few other remedies but still cant seem to fix it, Anyone have any experience with this?

Headset mike not recognized - can't open Audio Manager

You could try going into settings and running the 'Troubleshooter'. Although this might not work as I think it may be a software/driver issue.




Ah okay. I have had a look at the manufacture Nubwo, and there doesn't seem to be any official drivers or software listed.

Thus I would suggest we try and uninstall everything related to the headset, and then let everything install automatically, as it had done on the other desktop (assuming everything was automatically configured, and it just worked).

1.) See if you can first remove the Realtek Audio Manager 1.0.0.222 software by uninstalling it.

• Settings > Apps > Click on the app and select 'Uninstall.'

2.) After that right click on Start menu (*Start) and select 'Device Manager'

• Under the 'View' tab, select 'Show hidden devices'
• Then click on the arrow before 'Sound, video and game controllers' as well as 'Audio inputs and outputs' (this should drop down to reveal a list of audio drivers and headsets)
• I can help you with which driver (in relation to your headset) to uninstall, if you post back with a screenshot.

Optional.) Or if you are comfortable with knowing which driver to uninstall, then do so

• Right click on the driver name > Uninstall (Check 'delete software for this device'). Perform a restart and plug the headset back in.

 

chat headset for chat & game audio through speakers


'normally' , for that sort of thing , IF it shows up as an audio device under 'playback devices', you make your game speakers the 'default' device and your headset the 'default communications device'.

Depends if the chat headset shows up in the list though.
